Republican Senators Vote In Favor Of Covering Up Rape

I have often spoken about "family values" in this blog, usually in the context of the Republican lawmakers who seem to have none of them. Now I offer further proof that a big portion of the GOP is not only against"family values" but pro-rape. What?

Yup, just look at who voted against a recent amendment to the Defense Appropriations Bill by Senator Al Franken that would punish contractors if they "restrict their employees from taking workplace sexual assault, battery and discrimination cases to court."

Every one of these guys thinks it fine if a big company covers up a rape of one of its employees. Just to make it clear, they all feel business is more important that the safety of employees, even if they are sexually assaulted.

Now that's "family values" but only a "Crime Family". But hey, they are Republicans?

About Me

I have been a political activist since the early 1970's and I am an active educator presenting topics related to alternative sexuality, a filmmaker, author and marketing professional...and a Christian who tries to live out my faith. Sound like a strange combination? Perhaps, but I am a firm believer that living an honest open life is both the way to happiness and to changing the world.
My articles appear on a semi-regular basis on Q-Texas and Leatherati.
Currently I am exploring erotic fiction in my serialized story,...The Bohemians. It is intended for adults, so remember that when reading it. Enjoy!
